Marc Riboud in China

Renowned French photographer Riboud (Angkor: The Serenity of Buddhism, LJ 10/01/93) has been regularly recording the profound changes in China since 1956. In this companion catalog for an exhibition on display in Paris and New York, Riboud notes that "the East that we loved for its permanences is suddenly turning into a caricature of the West." Indeed, this collection portrays not only the striking contrasts between the old and new China but observes remnants of the old society adrift in the new. Generally showing either cityscapes or villagers engaged in daily activities, the 150 black-and-white images move from the tradition-bound Old World culture to scenes contrasting that world with Mao's China to the emergence of a modern, consumer-driven society carrying vestiges of the past. Along with the stirring photographs, Riboud's witty, personal captions and a reflective preface by French journalist Jean David capture the spirit of a resilient people and the soul of a rapidly changing nation. Highly recommended.Joan Levin, MLS, Chicago

Marc Riboud's images are a window on a world in transition as China reinvents itself with dizzying speed--his is as revealing a window as we are likely to find. The contrast between China old and new, as interpreted by Riboud, is an often startling one that cannot help but inform and intrigue. He specializes in the juxtaposition of images, perhaps none are more jarring than his photograph of a poor man lugging a sack of belongings down a trash-littered back street while a pair of chubby-cheeked babies glance over his shoulder in a nearby poster and a porno actress bares her chest in an ad overhead. Riboud's home is France, his territory is the world from Vietnam to Iran, but his heart and soul are apparently in the China he has covered from the days of Mao's revolution through the erosion of Communism to the country's modern economic upheaval.

读后感

看来读摄影书的人不算读书人，所以有关摄影的书大多无人问津。马克吕布，马格南摄影师，也算是布列松的学生。摄影风格追求影像的几何搭配，法国人在这方面有异常的天赋，无序中找寻韵律和节奏，应当说是天下第一。本书是有关中国的影像，可以从中看到一个外国人对中国几十年变...

用户评价

那个年代来中国的外国人好像都会带着浓厚的Mao视角，关于Mao的符号的褪去和变异，就成了镜头下的变迁线索。倒是很喜欢他写的关于每张照片的注释，对中国的理解十分有趣。也许正是这种文化上的差异和好奇，才能发现更多的新鲜焦点。

半个世纪前的中国 有意思

基本上已经确定我的兴趣爱好只在都市街拍和纪实摄影了... 琉璃厂那张好喜欢 相对于现在流行的强迫症构图 更喜欢略怪异的构图
